Harrasment charges

Rich9

I have been up on harrasment charges since last year the judge struck it out at Xmas and I've heard nothing back since is there time limits regarding case?

Incorrect, a struck out case can be heard again as the matter has not been determined by the court.

A dismissal on the other hand can't.


EDIT: Sorry I miss-read your post, I though you said "can't" re-enter.

There is no time limit per se, but any excessive delay may enable an order of prohibition. Excessive could be for example 24 months later, but, that would be a matter though for the court to decide based on a balancing test.

The cases are dating from July 2015 may 2017

As I said if it did happen it would be for the court to decide, so if it did happen seek legal advice.

If a solicitor told you that, get a new (better) solicitor.

If the receptionist told you that realise that you should never listen to what a receptionist has to say concerning legal advice.

To be fair the majority of struck out cases are never revisited, only a few are, but never say never and all that.

It is also possible that an indictable offence can be charged on the same facts if a summary disposal is out of time. If it is a legal aid solicitor, they are likely on the ball.

How long after arrest/questioning did it take to charge you/bring you to court? and why would they take you to court without directions from dpp first?
